June

June is a gender-neutral name of Latin origin meaning “young.” It comes from the summer month of June, which itself is derived from Juno, a powerful Roman goddess who was considered the protector of marriage and women (Wikipedia). When I create a photograph, I can't help thinking about a name for it. Some photographs I name instantly. Since this was taken during a summer trip to Mid-Anatolia in June, the minute I created it defined the month June for me, with its elements, sun, brightness, water and skies. Taken on June 23, 2021.
